Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Germanic *-รพuz. The related suffix *-ลรพuz is marginally attested in Gothic; only ๐Œผ๐Œฐ๐Œฝ๐Œฝ๐Œน๐ƒ๐Œบ๐‰๐Œณ๐Œฟ๐ƒ (manniskลdus) appears to match completely, although ๐Œฒ๐Œฐ๐Œฑ๐Œฐ๐Œฟ๐‚๐Œพ๐‰๐Œธ๐Œฟ๐ƒ (gabaurjลรพus), ๐Œฐ๐Œฟ๐Œท๐Œพ๐‰๐Œณ๐Œฟ๐ƒ (auhjลdus), ๐Œฒ๐Œฐ๐Œฟ๐Œฝ๐‰๐Œธ๐Œฟ๐ƒ (gaunลรพus) and ๐…๐‚๐Œฐ๐„๐‰๐Œณ๐Œฟ๐ƒ (wratลdus) also could be interpreted as containing that suffix instead of bare -รพus.

This suffix is sometimes said to not have been productive in Gothic anymore, meaning that any word in which it is found would have to be an inherited term from Proto-Germanic.
